Wait, now you have me second guessing myself... I think the fact its so "vague" is because it might be border-line prostitution... like "sexual messages"???

stay safe.

Invasor
Barbaro
Discreet Cat
Ouija Board
Bernadini

After that, it gets pretty murky with at least 15 horses I could shuffle around in there.

It's mind boggling that virtually all of the lists have, where ranked, Ouija Board toward the top but no mention of Pride. I can only imagine this is because Pride hasn't raced in the US, as on the book it is very difficult to conclude that OB is better than Pride - for all that I love Ouija. In my mind Pride is the best filly/mare to have raced on turf since Bosra Sham.

George Washington
Invasor
Rail Link
Bernardini
Barbaro
David Junior
Hurricane Run
Dylan Thomas
Shirocco
Pride

Honorable mention to Discreet Cat who has yet to achieve as much as those above, but who is almost certainly capable of doing so.

[Dunbar]

Among horses that ran in the US and in approximate order:

1 Invasor
2 Lava Man
3 Bernardini
4 Ouija Board
5 Discreet Cat
6 Barbaro
7 George Washington
8 Thor's Echo
9 The Tin Man
10 Aragorn

(Lava Man's wins on grass trump his inability to compete at the BC.)

--Dunbar

(had to edit to correct Aragorn spelling from "Aragon". Still recovering from disappointment from seeing Eragon movie on Friday, I guess!)

If she's owned by the Aga Khan, which I think she is, there's an excellent chance she was retired.

Like Brockguy stated, she's not retired.

From what I've heard, connections are targeting the Prix Corrida for her first start of the year.
